Megan House Fundraiser
The International Community Foundation helped to sponsor an event for the Megan House animal center in Oaxaca, Mexico, an animal facility dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and sterilization of unsheltered animals. The mission of the Megan House is to promote responsible animal ownership in Oaxaca. The event entitled, “Wine, Oaxaca, and Happy Tails” was held at the home of International Community Foundation’s board vice-chair, Cheryl Hammond. The event followed an educational forum for animal shelters overseas organized and sponsored by the Helen Woodward Animal Center.
The Megan House opened a Friends of Fund at the International Community Foundation in December 2008, so that they could start receiving donations and offer U.S. tax receipts. Their immediate need is a covered kennel in order to house more animals. The cost is more than $23,000. Contributions can be made online at: http://donate.icf-xchange.org/donate.php/meganhouse |
